So the "Chinese Wedge" was used for a spammer to gain a
foothold. To sum, a wedge (hjclub) gained a certification
from a Master (atai), who is Taiwanese, by presumably
[mis]using some Chinese codeword. Then it certified normal
spammer(s). The response (by chalst) was to call for
ostracism, or a purge, which is the normal social response.
However, suppose that there is no way to make atai to drop
the cert of the wedge. What then? I think we ought to get
used to the idea of imperfect protection. Raph actually said
that in the book example some books will be given away
improperly and that is all right. Still, there is probably
some fertile field for research here...
